And then there were three...
First there was one...
Aarti's constant up and down following her PV and P's phone calls for solace from loneliness and pining for home and old times got Sattu's grey cells working. What if... Yash gets mad with Aarti and throws her out ... would it not be wonderful if she got back with P? Then Shobha would never refuse to accept P, Ansh would have a father, P would have not one but two (Ansh-n-Aarti) remedies for his loneliness, and Aarti would continue to have a husband!!
Saatu was besides himself with his plan. He was delighted with the way Ansh was shaping up and was jealous that Yash and SP were basking in his love and affection. He so wanted Ansh back and see him fawn around P his real father but how? And Aarti - well that was a real blow for his business when Aarti left - she was customer services, sales rep, accountant and secretary. Now with her gone Shobha and he were just managing. If he got Aarti and P back - well the business would fall into place and more importantly P could be part of the set-up. But how was he to translate his plan into action?
Then the unexpected or should Sattu say the expected happened. Aarti ran away from Yash, P played good samaritan and helped her, P and Ansh became best buddies, and best of all P hid his identity from Yash, Aarti, and Ansh!!! Now P is back home, he is getting BMT and Shobha has accepted his presence in the house - step one of Sattu's plan has succeeded.
Then they were two...
Even without Sattu vocalizing it Pappu caught on to his game and followed it up with gusto. Nay Pappu was motivated and single mindedly began pursuing Aarti, Yash and Ansh in an underhand way. The key thing was to keep Yash and Ansh in the dark about his true identity while constantly putting Aarti in compromising situations that perpetrated the lie that her X is dead and that she is a widow. The plan was working beautifully until there came a hitch - Yash. Yash has finally fallen in love with Aarti. Well desperate times call for desperate solutions - so Sattu and Pappu decided on a plan to unveirl Aarti's secret to Yash and the Scindhiyas so that they would get upset at her deceiving them and throw her out of SM. Pappu would then play knight in shining armour and rescue Ansh and Aarti literally from the streets and bring them home as wife and son. However there was a twist - Kaki appeared unexpectedly.
And then there were three...
Kaki - dear old Kaki could not bear to see Aarti in the arms of another. The obvious camaraderie, wealth and security of Aarti's new family was like a thorn that bit into her nice rounded tushie. She could not bear to see Pappu without his X wife besides him. So what if Pappu has other women in his life, so what if Pappu abandoned Aarti when she was pregnant, so what if Pappu was only a sperm donor, so what if Pappu does not love Aarti --- none of these factors are as important as getting Aarti back to Pappu. A wife should be with her hubby regardless whether he beats her, cheats on her and abandons her!!
So 'I' said Kaki 'will expose her lie about being a widow to the Scindhiyas and drag Aarti back to grovel at Pappu's feet'!
'Ah' said Sattu, 'no need to hurry dear Bhabhi. The seeds of doubt and distrust are being sown by me and Pappu in Scindhiya family. Come join hands with us and let us be three to work our way to deceptively destroy Aarti's standing with the Scindhiya family. For then they will truly ask her to leave and throw her on the street from where we like saviors of old will pick her up for a lifetime of grovelling at our feet!'.
Edit is underlined: For today dear Bhabhi let us hold our peace and let Aarti be with Yash. Later I will tell you all about Pappu's BMT and the third one that is still pending. Until that third BMT we will let Aarti be. Once it is done we three shall for sure get Aarti and Ansh back to Dupey mansion that is the Dupey vachan!
And all it needs is one true soul to bring in the light for the darkness to disappear...
Yash has sensed this uneasiness about Aarti. He has noticed:
Pappu's demeaning obsession with Aarti,
Aarti'a hovering presence around Ansh
Aarti shying away from his touch
Aarti's aloofness with the Dupeys
Kaki's hatred for Aarti, and
Aarti's terrorized look ever since Kaki made her entrance
Yash knows something is wrong between Aarti and all members at the Dupey residence. But what? Why is Pappu daring to be so intimate with his wife? Why is Kaki so annoyed with Aarti? Why is Aarti so guilt ridden - what is it that is being hidden from him? Yash decides he will sheild Aarti and this new baby of his from all vile presence. He loves Aarti and no more can he live without her -- and he knows she loves him as well. Whatever be the cost, singlehandedly if necessary he will be the protective light around her to pick her up and take her deep within the sheltering presence of his love. In that protective loving light all darkness of distrust will disappear and his family will find complete contentment!!
